Name the shotshell press that has a decapping die that leaves tracks like this...:oops:134075
First prize is a free safety seminar on said press, with particular emphasis on where not to place your thumb while operating it. :smile:

Very nice !!! Looks painfull. Can't answer though. I never did shotshell don't ever plan too. Kind of reminds me of the time I tried to cut the tip of my finger off with a .357 case mouth though. :shock:

You got it! As a matter of fact, you got it so quick, I suspect you may have had a similar experience.:smile:
If not, here's your safety lesson for today:
Don't catch the ejecting shell like this:134077
I strongly suggest holding the thumb under the machine like this instead:134078
This is a new machine to me, I bought it some time back but haven't used it until today. I got it out to run some sample loads to see if it would be suitable to load small runs of buckshot and bismuth shot duck loads on. It makes a beautiful shell, but bit me on about the third one I made.
One of those moments where you're standing there watching the blood drip, thinking "I can't believe I was stupid enough to do that!"

Thanks for the advice. Waiting on a part and I will start reloading on my new (to me) 375C! Already pinched my hand pulling the ram on my arbor press.
